Description

This Australian story exhibits all the colour and harshness of life in post-war inner Sydney. With alcohol abuse adding to the austerity of the boys' early lives, there is a rapid progression into crime and the welfare system. Intrigue and conspiracy in the seminary, and the failure of the Roman Catholic Church to ensure the safety of the boys in care provides the background. Problems are exacerbated by the laxity of the celibate hierarchy - and a cover-up. The hunt for the killer and the unusual ending makes for an intriguing plot. A carefully balanced international theme, with much left to the reader's imagination.'A marvellously well-plotted, topical novel - a cracker of a tale, engrossing and ... a sensitive treatment of the subject of paedophilia - and murder.' Tom Flood, Miles Franklin award winning author, editor and assessor
